Across
  1. 3. released to control the sense of pain
  2. 5. released during fight or flight response
  3. 7. neurotransmitters get reabsorbed into the neuron
  4. 9. one way highway that processes depolarization
  5. 11. excitatory neurotransmitters
  6. 12. responsible for memory, learning, muscle movement
  7. 13. potential, fires the energy down the axon
  8. 15. Sheath, insulates the axon
  9. 16. inhibitory neurotransmitters
  10. 17. Neurons, brings info to the brain/spine
  11. 20. must reach absolute threshold to fire an action potential
  12. 21. cells, support cells
Down
  1. 1. covered in receptors/receives the message
  2. 2. found in the brain/spine
  3. 4. period, neuron resets itself to fire again
  4. 6. Branches, houses the neurotransmitters
  5. 8. released in time of pleasure
  6. 10. primary a mood stabilizer
  7. 14. space between the neurons
  8. 17. p, released to allow us to feel pain
  9. 18. potential, neuron is waiting to fire
  10. 19. Neurons, activates muscles
